11. The weekly demand for propane gas (1000s of gallons) at a certain facility is a continuous variable with density function shown in attached image
Determine both the mean value and the median. In the long run, in what proportion of weeks will the value of x be between the mean value and the median?
The life (in days) of a certain machine has an exponential distribution with a mean of 1 day. The machine comes supplied with one spare. Find the density function (t measure in days) of the combined life of the machine and its spare if the life of the spare has the same distribution as the first machine,but is independent of the first machine.

- Economists use Lorenz curves to illustrate the distribution of income in a country. A Lorenz curve, y = f(x), represents the actual income distribution in the country. In this model, x represents percents of families in the country from the poorest to the wealthiest and y represents percents of total income. The model y = x represents a country in which each family has the same income. The area between these two models, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 100, indicates a country’s “income inequality.” The table lists percents of income y for selected percents of families x in a country. (a) Use a graphing utility to find a quadratic model for the Lorenz curve. (b) Plot the data and graph the model. (c) Graph the model y = x. How does this model compare with the model in part (a)? (d) Use the integration capabilities of a graphing utility to approximate the “income inequality.”arrow_forwardSuppose you are interested in uncovering the relationship between snowfall (in inches) in the month of December and the flow rate of Yosemite Falls in April (in cubic meters per second) over the span of years from 2005 to 2010 (inclusive).

- Compare a graph of the normal density function with mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1 with a graph of a normal density function with mean equal to 4 and standard deviation of 1. The graphs would: Have the same height but one would be shifted 4 units to the right. Have no horizontal displacement but one would be flatter than the other. Have no horizontal displacement but one would be steeper that the other.arrow_forward3. The total claim amount for a health insurance policy follows a distribution with density function f(x)= 1500e-/1500 for x > 0. The insurance has a deductible of $200. Find the mean and the standard deviation of the amount the insurance pays per claim.arrow_forwardThe risk of a person developing heart disease is correlated with their BMI (or body mass index), which is calculated by dividing their body mass by their height (high BMIS typically mean the person is overweight). Heart disease is also related to a person's level of activity. Suppose a person's BMI is x and their physical activity is y (measured, for example, in minutes of exercise each day). Let h be a heart disease risk index (high values of h mean high risk of heart disease, low values of h mean a low risk of heart disease). h depends on x and y, that is, h3h(x,y). A simple linear model that only takes into account the effects of BMI and activity is (a) Would you expect a > 0 or a < 0? What about b? You would expect a 7o and b 0. (b) To fit the values of a and b, consider the following data. A patient with BMI of 15, and who does 50 min of activity each day, has risk index h = 150. A patient with BMI of 30, and who does 30 min of activity each day, has risk index h = 405. Use these…arrow_forward
- With the known values of a = 200,000 and b = 230,000, the first equation for the probability density function for the sales price of a home is found as follows. f(x) = 1/b – a, a ≤ x ≤ b = 1/230,000 − 200000, 200,000 ≤ x ≤ 230,000 = 1/30000, 200,000 ≤ x ≤ 230,000 Everywhere else, the probability density function will just be 0. Therefore, the full probability density function for the sales price of a home follows. f(x) = _______________ 200,000 ≤ x ≤ 230,000 elsewherearrow_forwardb. 1 1.5 2.5 3 h(q) 110 366 1215 4034 13394 Estimate h'(2) using the table above. h'(2) 2arrow_forwardAlcohol use in the United States increased during the first year of the COVID pandemic, as did the number of alcohol-induced deaths (such as alcoholic liver disease, accidental alcohol poisoning, disorders due to acute intoxication).
